this is truck had a 5" exhaust and a smarty tune, I drove it very slowly for that tank as there was snow over ice down through oklahoma and texas, they dont plow or salt. The truck regularly gets 23mpg going the speed limit.

thanks I am looking forward to this ski season that is quickly approaching, I have all new gear and a all new go-pro! ill be sure to add a few!

Not much rake especially if you keep anything in the bed, would not recommend if you tow much weight.

The PN that I ordered off “parts geek” website was ADS00200

It’s the MAF and a Thermostat that is misbehaving accordingly, I appreciate the observation and am tracking the problem, getting into the car again this week!

I don’t know about all that now but it sure was fun!

Good to know! It was also decently cold out when I drove it! I’ll be driving it here again soon and will verify! I appreciate the tip, I’d love an 06 CDI, I just got the Bluetec because it was impossibly cheap

Strat is send it 👍

thanks!

Went and bought a plane ticket cause you said so….went the wrong way, suppose the alps will do!

Clearly not, as the title says east coast bumps, thanks for the view and the observation!

Very Much relatable!

Well I suppose we all learn along the way, thanks for the view and the interaction! Still available to help with the actual install if the instructions are a bit hard!

Mistakes were made!!!

With some 5 year old summer tires in the mountains it sure is!

@@johnramsayskier not trying to be a dick, hope you had a safe drive.

I did thanks, and I wasn’t worried about it!

As it happens, just add fuel and re-prime 😏

I am sure with some new tires and maybe a few hydraulic hoses she would be right as rain!

just out here tryin to have a good time! about to get back into skiing this winter, shopping for new gear now! its been a few years!

It is too loud for me as well! The five inch exhaust is entertaining for about the first 30 minutes of a drive, then you are ready for a muffler and a four inch! My truck drives very well for the age as well! How many miles do you see yourself shooting for with your truck?

@@johnramsayskier I’m mostly retired now so I don’t drive it regularly, but I’m thinking about 500 k. A new black paint job , seat cushions, sound deadening pads, etc, and a stereo with back up camera is coming in the next couple months. I plan on keeping it.

@@powerwagon3731 I am aiming for 500 as well! I am going to try and swap in a fourth gen leather drivers seat when my seat is a bit more worn, and I am going to put a flat bed on the back as its a little more practical for my use case.

No these did not, it was fully functional even at full stuff and full droop crossed up in a sharp ditch.

@@johnramsayskier great to know. Thanks for the reply

@@ethanspruill7539 of course! let me know if you have any other questions, I sold the truck so I am running off memory now!

Clearly a land invasion supporting the marines!

@@johnramsayskier Sailor had one too many drinks and drove off base with it

I’m trying to get back into it myself!

Crew cab!

I think it will look just fine! That’s pretty close to a true 33! You certainly won’t have to do any trimming! You’ll have full turn lock to lock even off-road!

Nope I believe they are sprung and valved differently.

Banjos intensify

These I believe were 17x10 we did this lift about three years ago now and I had the wheels about 6 months before that, they may not make them any more in that size, I could also be wrong!

@@johnramsayskier i appreciate the response. I ended up getting some 17x9s and went with the 6inch lift. Because of your video, i was able to decide on what we wanted. Much appreciated!

While they don’t have the exact kit I bought any more, this one is pretty close and adds a new upper control arm for better ball joinT angles! shop.redline360.com/products/rough-country-lift-kit-ford-f150-4wd-09-13-3-suspension-lift-kits-w-struts-shocks?variant=39772525854800&currency=USD&msclkid=90541e1f564e1bc903677d53df10945d

If there not cracking are you really having fun?
